    Default Get Free Hardware For Writing Reviews!

    I've known about this for a while, but I have been sitting on it waiting for a response from them on a proposal to get you guys an even better deal in exchange for high traffic review exposure on the front page. They never did so I thought I'd just inform those of you who are not already aware.

    Xoxide.com offers rebates up to $100 for reviews written about their products after purchase. There are stipulations in the fine print so make sure you read them, one of which is you must have a website that meets their requirements as "high traffic" which excludes most smaller or personal site. However, TBCS more than qualifies so we can publish your reviews for you and as long as you fullfil the other requirements you can score some great deals. Hopefully they will return my emails and we can work out an even better situation for you but that remains to be seen. Anyway, here is a link where you can read up on the details. You should forward your questions to them, the only thing I can do for you on this matter is offer you publishing on an adequate site.

    Read about the program here.

    Here are their details in their words...
    Get Free Gear for Reviewing Xoxide Products!

    Listen up product reviewers! Are you a respected product review site of the PC Modding community? How would you like to get free stuff from Xoxide.com to review on your site?

    The details are pretty simple. Purchase a product from Xoxide. Do a complete review of the product listing Xoxide as the source of the product. Publish it to your site, magazine, etc, and send us a copy or the link to the site. If it meets the guidelines listed on this page, you will receive full credit for your original purchase for up to $100.

    So you think you have what it takes to review an Xoxide sold product? Check out the requirements below!

    Review Requirements:

    * Minimum Word Requirement: 900 Words
    * Minimum Picture Requirement: 5 Pictures
    * Required Links:
    o One Link Directly to the Product on our Site
    o One Link to the Product Category on our Site
    o One Link to Xoxide.com
    o One Link of Your Choice
    o At Least One Link to Our Site per Page if the review is multiple pages
    * Maximum 2 Products Per Month Per Site
    * Credit Will Be Issued in 1-5 Business Days

    Not too shabby, eh? Once published, simply send us a copy of the publication, or a link to the web address, and the circulation number or number of unique visitors your site receives a day. Presentation, size, popularity, and quality are all factors that will be taken into consideration before issuing a credit.

    Contact Information:

    * First and Last Name
    * Order Number
    * Reviewed Product
    * Review Link or Copy of Publication
    * Circulation or Unique Page Hits per Month
    * Send all of the above to the address listed on the Info Page of our website, or click productreviews@xoxide.com to email the information

    There are of course a few rules that must be followed, so please make sure to look over the fine print at the bottom of the page before embarking on your endeavor! We know it's scary, but we are very lenient, it's just that we can't be held responsible for frivolous work that does not result in a credit due to your lack of reading. So grab your keyboards and get to typing!


    The Fine Print: Reviews will be accepted from known established computer review websites and magazines. We will not accept reviews from websites hosted on free servers, non-review sites, personal web sites, websites sponsored, promoting, or emblazoned by pornographic, obscene, questionable, or illegal content, or sites containing any content deemed inappropriate by Xoxide that would be detrimental to the Xoxide name. You website is required to have at least 6,000 unique visitors per month. Proof of this traffic is required.

    Reviews must be published within 60 days of product purchase to be eligible for credit. Web site reviews must remain on site for minimal of 1 year from purchase date. Credit will be issued at our discretion for the cost of product, including shipping, for the amount up to, but never exceeding $100USD. Example: if you buy a product for $60 plus $5 shipping we'll credit you $65. If you buy a product for $95 plus $10 shipping we'll only credit you $100.

    Multiple reviews of the same product by the same publisher will not be accepted. For example, a publisher that operates two websites and a magazine will only receive a credit for a review of a single product once, even if they publish a review of that product on both sites and the magazine. Once Published, Xoxide.com is free to use any part of the review on our site as long as proper credit is given. Xoxide reserves the right to refuse credit for any reason, and is free to cancel or modify this program at anytime.
    Edit

    Xoxide is requiring that we publish your written review on the front page. Due to this we ask that you finish your review a minimum a week before its deadline so we can run it through our proof reading system and make the necessary changes to fit our front page format. When you have your review finished post it in the reviews section and then send Oneslowz28 a pm letting him know its ready for the front page.

    Thanks,
    Management

    Does that mean only two reviews can get money back per month if they were all posted on tbcs?

    That what it sounds like, but again, you should direct all questions to Xoxide.com. I am only passing this info along as I found it so I will not speak for them.

    That's the way I interperet it. If 3 people write reviews, only 2 of them are going to get credit that month. But as Jon said, direct all questions to Xoxide.com

    Actually thats not such a bad deal, since it would be unreasonable to have multiple reviews of the same product on the same site. We could have a subscribed review thread where people can apply for the 2 review slots per month. A raffle if you will for thoes willing to wait untill the next month to purchace a product. It seems logical because most of the items being reviewed will probly be under or around the $100 range.

    Personally, i'd be willing to wait a month or 2 to get a $120 product for $20 or possibly for free.

    True, and there is no line at the moment. We have lots of members doing reviews but I don't see anyone taking advantage of this very good opportunity.

    I would definitely consider writing a review for one of these bad boys.
